    WR nothing much.

    NWR I have work and work-related issues every day this week. I'm working from home today and I can't focus at all. I have a job that many people would strangle unicorns with their bare hands for, but I can't seem to make it work. I just started this summer, and I would piss off a lot of people if I left now. But I saw this great PhD job offer on the website from my old university, and I'm seriously considering applying. I emailed them for more info today. I just hope it's not an offer that they already promised to some insider.

  • WR: I need to call on the marriage license info, schedule first fitting, & start on the rehearsal dinner menu & guestlist (along with calling the places for food).

    NWR:  I have my midterm for A&P tomorrow..so I'll be studying all day today...I'm meeting with two girls from class this afternoon for a little study session...I have had a hard time focusing all weekend. I"ve only done 4/8 chapters...but I've been doing okay with reviewing things as we go along...ugh, I am so nervous about tomorrow!! I cannot afford to bomb this exam...I'm not a good test taker at all...KNOTTIE VIBES PLEASE!! hahaha
  • WR: booking a hotel by the airport for the night after our wedding night and the night before our honeymoon (we leave at 6am the monday after our wedding so want to stay right by the airport and stay at a hotel where we can just park/leave our car during our honeymoon).  also want to finally choose bridesmaid dresses.  we are also finalizing our third block of rooms for hotel guests.  ummmmm also need to start looking into booking our limousine for the bridal party! i think those are the big things for this week's to do list.

    NWR: i have been SO SWAMPED at work it hasn't even been funny! i have had to travel 3 days out of the last 7 and i am just exhausted. lucky for me i can use my time on theknot as my work breaks throughout the day :)
  • WR: We are going to look at more invitations. We looked at a place but they wanted to charge us like 700 for invitations, and we were like uh, no thanks!

    NWR: Patriots are playing this weekend so i iwll be watching that since it is a pretty important game!!! GO PATS!

    littlemoments - GOOD LUCK!!!  You'll do just fine.  I'm not a good test-taker either, so I know how you feel.  :)

    WR: Picking up my bridal shoes this week!  Also, I should have a free night this week, so I'm thinking I'll sit down and put the ribbons on my bubbles or wrap the flip-flops and put them in their basket (I bought a bunch of flip-flops from Michaels for $1 ea to give out at the reception).  Also, I have some more brooches to wire for my bouquet.  FI likes helping me with that for some reason hahaha.

    NWR: gym, gym, gym!  A girl I went to high school with just met her 50 lb goal and posted some before & after pics on Fbook.  So thanks to her, I'm really motivated this week.

Gonna look at the house that we have been eyeing on tonight and possibly make an offer. I have the day off today so I am going to do some licensure work.

  • My weekend seemed super busy, but Saturday I didn't even really do anything, yesterday I went to a wedding expo in the area to get information on tuxes, limos, and cakes, ended up seeing the stretch hummer I had just emailed an inquiry about to the company. It was decent and I got a $100 off coupon from them for being at the expo. After that my sister and I went to Micheal's and found 3 really cute boxes that had soft blues, purples, and tans, and we bought them and I'll stack them on top of each other and use them as card boxes, and we got a little cute calendar thing that matched that we'll put on the table with our date selected and a few other cute things. I was super excited about everything and my sister was a sweetheart and bought all the stuff for me using a gift card she had. :)

    This week I don't have a lot planned. WR probably get in touch again with the florist/event planner I met at the expo that I emailed last week and let them know my budget because they had some amazing flowers and they said that they would work with me. My sister said something about possibly giving my fiance and I a little more money for our flowers too so that we can really do what we want and if so I'm super happy and excited and I'm going to owe my sister like a million times over. I also want to get in touch with the limo people I met and maybe a few others as well.

    NWR: Work, and possibly a girls night out on Thursday with my sister(s). Still haven't really made any plans. Also need to light a fire under FI's butt about work and money. He's been getting a little lenient about them again and that tends to stress me out, which leads to headaches

  • WR: My aunts requested a guest list for the shower they are throwing; so i need to get on that, and find the addresses Im still missing. We also need to look more into our chicago honeymoon hotels, and get that checked off. I want to work on the invite verse (we got the okay from both parents to be listed separately) and the insert cards too. 
    NWR: This is the first real week of school for the semester, so Im going to try and focus on keeping up with that. I also need a job for the semester, and a fulltime for after graduation, so I will be getting some applications done i hope. I wont be able to see FI til late saturday night, so hopefully i can get some of this stuff done!!

  • WR- We decided to book a videographer so I am hoping to hear back from them this week.  I also just started looking into calligraphers for our invites I just found one who does them for .75 cents each which is super cheap.  I am going to have her write my escort cards too since my handwriting is terrible.

    NWR-going to kickboxing 4 days this week then I have a baby shower on saturday.

    NWR - Work, work and more work! Plus band and choir practice, and a few meetings at church.

    WR - I still haven't been able to find a caterer so I really need to focus on that. Tonight my FI and I went and bought vases and flowers for the start of our centerpiece. Its a long way from done though!

  • WR - I should probably call the parents of my ring bearer and flower girl this week to get together with them shortly.  Maybe during their February vacation and look at dresses for the girl and get the boy fitted for a tux.  I just got my proofs back on the invitations so I need to make sure they came out right this time and hopefully I'll get those shortly.  I also really need to start with my programs.

    NWR - Ugh work is taking over my life :(.  I also need to get to the gym more often.  I want to try and go in the mornings now but we'll see.  I also need to clean my apartment as its just gotten out of control.  It's also my birthday this week and FI is taking me out to dinner Thursday, Friday I'm going out to lunch with my boss and intern, and Saturday my family is taking me out.  Then Sunday is the Patriots game.
